Water Coolers In America.

The Ollas and cantaros OF the country
jars and vases OF earthenware Of varying
shapes and sizes, but always porous and
sweetly wholcsome-are, perhaps the most
desirable vessels possible as holders and
coolers of water. They maintain the
water at a pleasant, satisfactory temPera-
ture, like that of good spring water, but
avoiding the extreme OF the pernicious ice
tank, while they crafty the palate by
sufficient GOODNESS. This end is attained
by their aforesaid porosity, which also as
sures the necessary oxygenation of the
contents. Also, being extremely cheap,
these vessels may be often renewed, and
thus Is avoided any chance of harm from
possible deleterious deposits from the
water. OF graceful, even classic shapes
for the most part, these vessels lend much
picturesqueness to the Mexican menage
and to the landscapes in those sections
where the women carry from rivers,
springs or public fountains the water for
domestic use. In such districts the women
are almost without exception graceful of
gait and carriage, thanks to the perfect
balance and ease of poise acquired In bear
ing the ollas, trimming full, upon the
head, usually without In support from
the hands. They are so many Rebekahs,
and usually quito as hospitable and kindly
as that historic Jewish maiden. Wherever
these earthen jarG exist they impart some
what of an oriental aspect TO the scene.

BLUE laws are odious to the enlight-
ened spirit of the present age and deserve
condemnation wherever they arc enacted
or enforced under no matter what pretext
or disguise. Anything resembling stump
tuary legislation must, except in isolated
communities, iail to receive that cordial
support from public opinion without which
no law commands respect. But the right
Of a city or a state to regulate what it eau.
not suppress mus be conceded, and by a
careful exercise of an unquestioned power
to reduce to the minimum evils which no
legislation has been found potent wholly
to eradicate.

In Mongolia the animal was said to be u

In the Celebes a world supporting hog, In
North America n tortoise. In Siberia
there was a myth, connected with the
great bones found there, that these were
the remains of animals that lived under

ground shake. In Knmtchatka the legend
was connected with a god, Tull, who went
out hunting with his dogs. When these
latter stopped to scratch themselves their
movements produced earthquakes. In
Scandinavian mythology, Loh having
killed his brother Baldwin, was bound to

An Important Class of J. nds and
SuperatitIons-A stranRc Tale.

An Important Class OF J ndH ana
SuperstitIons-A Strangr Tale.
The direct oriental origin OF the Irish
people has been commended for W many
writer's on the subject, and one of the
principal in favor OF tEeir
position is found In the similarity Of the
legendary lore OF Ireland to that Of
Arabia, Persia and India. Among the
peoples living in these countries a very i'm
portant class OF legends and superstitions
relate to the evil eye" and in Ireland,
also, hundreds of tales are told of the NAL
Ign influence exerted by certain people
supposed TO AVE the power Of doing mis-
chief by q glance. Every one knows how
great is the influence of q peculiar kind of
eye sometimes seen, and how depressing
and sometimes overawing it is, and this
TACT is perhaps found the origin of the
tales concerning the evil eye.
According to the Irish stories, the evil
eye is generally sunken, small and hnlf
concealed by a shaggy, o~verhanging eye
brow. Its glance is able to cause sickness
OF almost any kind, TO infict sudden and
otherwise unaccountable pains In various
parts Of the body; to blight a crop; to
render a household utensil worthless for
the purpose for which it was designed; to
make a horse fall lame or a COW go off her
milk. But especially is it dreaded in the
case of children, they being wonderfully
susceptible to outward influences Of every
kind. Whom infants are looked at or
spoken of a blessing Is always pronounced,
therefore, by persons who have no inten-
ton of doing them harm. A notable In
stance of the contrary Is cited by Lady
Wilde of an infant In Galway. 1t was so
beautiful that every one who saw 1t at
once cried out God bless It,, in order
that 1t might be preserved from all harm.
One day n strange woman, never before
seen in the neighborhood, cam TO the
door and, stopping for an instant, saw the
child and walked In without invitation,
seated herself and asked for a drlnk OF
water. 1t was given her, put all the time
she kept her eye fixed on the child with
out speaking Of it or saying God bless It,"
She went away, and that night the baby
fell i'll and cried ali night. The next day the
child was worse and the fairy doctor was
sent for, who Immediately saw what was
the matter with the baby, and told the
mother that this was not her child, but a
fairy changcling; that her own baby had
been with the fairies ever since the visit
OF the strange woman. In order to re-
cover the child the mother must find the
stranger, cut Off n bit of her gown and
burn 1t, when the fairies would be com
PEELED to restore her own A few days
after the stranger was seen again passing
the door; the mother ran out and pressed
her to enter; she did 50, and while she
was drinking a noggin OF milk the mother
secretly clipped a bit OF the strange
womnn's gown and afterward burned 1t,
holding the child in the smoke till 1t

II THE recent earthquake in Southern

Of exposing veins of gold, it will forn a
singular instance of a country being bene-
fitted by such a visitation. The territory
is known to be rich in gold and silver, and
paying mines are already worked in sew
eral districts. while the danger from
Apaches has prevented prospecting to
such an extent that a considerable area re-
mains practically unexplored. 1t is,
therefore, not impossible that the rumor
should be true, though it is far more
likely to have been the invention Of some

A Modern California Mining Camp.

The cuts and scars and gullies left by
the early %prospeotor have been long since
filled up, and over them now stands the
neat residence and green lawns of the
miners families. Shade trees, in pro-
fuse abundance, line the public thorough
fares, while the gardens yield abundance
of fruit and vegetables. In the evening
h sidewalks become a miniature Kearny
street during business hours, while the
subsequent night time is still enough to
satisfy the most fastidious. Neither
dance house nor dive is known. II a
gambling den is in operation, it is kept
away from the public gaze. The streets
are deserted long before midnight, and
seldom any sound greets the ear save the
heavy, champing "chow-ow' of the
neighboring quartz mills, in their cease
less grinding of the yellow ore.-Over-

In the literature Of to-day, all roads
seem to lead to the novel. The historian
and ~biographer, the scientist and the es-
sayist, are all likely to turn to fiction Mt
some time or other, either for mental re-
taxation or for the opportunity of adj
dressing a larger circle of readers than
mere research can hope to attract. Does
the eminent mathematician find his work
grow monotonous, forthwith he sets his
pen to the composition of nan of
thwarted love. Does the scholar erudite
in classical lore and the myths of savage
races become weary of his labors, he
straightway ihvents tales of ingenious
villainy and his mind is refreshed.-Wil-
liam Morton Payne in The Dial.

AN EMINENT English divine, Canon
W~ilberforce, as the result of his visit to
the United States, has expressed an opin-
ion OF American institutions somewhat al
variance with those held by many of his
less observant c%ountrymen. Speaking of
the presidency, he says:
The Office of president of the United
States seems to me to be the most exact
ing, the most important and the most re
sponsible Office under the sun. Its duties
much greater, much heavier and harder are
than those Of the prime minister Of Eng
land. for be has more factions to satisfy,
and he combines the Offices Of the sover
eign with those Of the prime minister.
Mr.. Cleveland impressed me as a man
eminently fitted for the immense labor
and responsibility OF that high Office.
